Melt flow behavior of metal filled in polymer matrix for fused deposition modeling (FDM) filament
This paper presents the melt flow behavior (MFB) of an acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), High Density Polyethlene (HDPE), Polyproplene (PP) and a combination of ABS-Iron in the extrusion process. In this study, the effect MFB of variety's polymers and ABS mix with 10% Iron material was inv...

| Summary: | This paper presents the melt flow behavior (MFB) of an acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), High Density Polyethlene (HDPE), Polyproplene (PP) and a combination of ABS-Iron in the extrusion process. In this study, the effect MFB of variety's polymers and ABS mix with 10% Iron material was investigated based on the viscosity, density, thermal conductivity, melting temperature and specific heat material properties. The MFB of FDM system was investigated using Finite-Element Analysis (FEA) by ANSYS CFX 12. Based on the result obtained, it was found that, the material velocity increase when the nozzle diameter is smaller than the entrance diameter. The higher temperature distribution along the MFB of ABS mix with 10% Iron is 43.15 K compared with original ABS, which is 539.15K. |
